Benjamin Brasher Benjamin Brasher 6'4" | 315 lbs | OL Evansville North | 2025 State IN – Evansville North – OL – 6’3″ 300lbs – 2025
There were 3 guys in my opinion who could have been nominated for OL MVP. Honestly, it was a really good group overall. It was not the biggest in numbers, but 3 of the best players at the camp in general were from the offensive line and unfortunately, only 1 can win MVP. However, that does not take away from the day Brasher had at all. He won every single 1 on 1 rep and has fantastic control of his body. His core strength is impressive and he’s fairly clean with his mechanics and hand placement. A holding call was never in the books with Brasher because he doesn’t need to, and because he knows where to place his hands depending on the block he’s making and the move coming his way, but the point stands. He was really good all night long. Lastly, I wanted to point out his broad jump. 8’6″ inches was the best I saw. I didn’t see the final list, but I know his broad jump was up there with the skilled guys. It was an overall impressive night for, in my opinion, one of the best offensive linemen in the class.

Noah Brown Noah Brown 6'0" | 240 lbs | OL East Central | 2027 State IN – East Central – OL – 6’0″ 235lbs – 2027
I mentioned it earlier and I’ll say it again. The offensive line talent at this camp was top-notch. Brown is the 3rd and final OL who I thought could have been in the MVP race. He first caught my eye when he ran a 5.07 40-yard dash, timed by the collegiate coaches running the ship. With 2 coaches timing each run, both runs were fairly similar. I knew coming in that he had started for East Central all year, but it wasn’t until we got to the INDY session that he began to make a lot of sense. His mechanics are very clean for his age, he moves well going both ways and has no issue changing direction. He’s got big feet and hands which point to him not being done growing. That, and he’s only a freshman. He’s young, he’s strong, and he’s ahead of schedule in a lot of areas. If he can continue to work, develop in all areas of the game, and work on his frame, Brown has all the makings of a D1 interior lineman. I thought he was fantastic and I will always hammer the trenches because every game is won and lost there.

Cameron Fravel – Adams Central – DL – 6’2″ 195lbs – 2026
There were a handful of fantastic young defensive linemen there and Fravel was easily one of the best. He tested well across the board which only helps get the ball rolling. He came out and ran a 4.75 40-yard dash and then followed that up with the 2nd best Broad Jump of the day. I believe it was 8’3″, but either way it didn’t stop there. He looked during their INDY segments and was arguably the most attentive DL of the group. They were a focused group, but if I had to pick 1 guy who seemed the most locked in I’d say it was Fravel. Nothing major, nothing against the other guys, but Fravel seemed to be picking up everything they wanted him to do. Rep after rep throughout the entire camp. He’s quick, he’s creative when he needs to be, and he’s stronger than you’d think so he’s effective in the run. It was a good night from Fravel and after his sophomore year that saw him out up 65 tackles and 7 sacks, it could be just the beginning for Fravel.

Jamison Roach Jamison Roach 5'10" | 165 lbs | QB Adams Central | 2027 State IN – Adams Central – QB – 5’10” 165lbs – 2027
It was a great day for Adams Central as their young QB had a great day. If it were up to me, I would have had him in the final showcase for the top QBs against Cruz. It was close between the top 3, but I felt Roach threw the best ball and had the best timing. He’s very precise in the short game and did a good job throwing his RBs open during the 1-on-1s. He’s got good placement for his WRs downfield and was always right on time getting the ball out. It seems like he sees the field well and can process, which is paramount to a QB’s success. On top of all of that, he ran a 4.65 40-yard dash, timed by the same collegiate coaches who ran the drills. The eye test certainly said he’s pretty quick. Nonetheless, Roach did exactly what he needed to at a camp like this. Get acclimated, take command of certain moments, and continue to take in as many reps as he can before he starts this fall. He’s talented and after seeing him throw live, I’m a bit more excited to see what he can do this fall if he keeps working like he is.

Grayson Owens Grayson Owens 6'1" | 215 lbs | DL Noblesville | 2024 State IN – Noblesville – DL – 6’1″ 215lbs – 2024
The senior defensive lineman may not have left as MVP, but he didn’t go unnoticed. I thought from the jump he had a good day, especially during the INDY periods and then when they went to 1-on-1s. He’s been a fairly productive player throughout his career and that was noticeable against some of the younger recruits he went up against today. He made quick work of some reps and did a good job not relying on 1 move to win. Over his past 2 seasons of football, he’s collected 101 tackles, 12 TFLs, 3 sacks, 9 hurries, and 4 forced/recovered fumbles. He’s been a fairly productive player throughout his upperclassman years and is doing exactly what he should at camps. Taking advantage of his reps, winning against quality players, and staying humble. Owens should land a place to play college ball soon with how he wrapped up his career and this camp.
